Built on Workday vs. Workday Extend:
Which Solution is Right for You?

Choosing between Built on Workday apps and Workday Extend depends on the specific needs of your organization and how customized you want your solutions to be. Here’s a breakdown to help you decide:

Built on Workday

Pre-built apps that are ready for installation and configuration
Ideal for businesses that need a solution that already exists in the marketplace and don’t require customization
Subscription-based with annual licensing directly from the app developer
Does not require Extend licenses if the app is already built for Workday
No customizability – once installed, the app cannot be modified, making it best for straightforward use cases where out-of-the-box functionality meets your needs

Workday Extend

Custom-built apps tailored to meet specific, unique organizational needs
Best suited for businesses that need a bespoke solution or require additional customization beyond what’s available in Built on Workday apps
Requires Extend licenses for app development and ongoing use
Apps can be developed, customized, and integrated into your existing Workday environment
Higher development cost and longer implementation times, as you’ll need consulting services to build and maintain these apps.

Which Solution Should you Choose?

Chose Built on Workday if:

An app already exists to meet your needs
You don’t need customization and are looking for a quick, cost-effective solution
You don’t have Extend or want to save Extend licenses

Choose Workday Extend if:

Your needs are unique or require specific customizations
You want complete flexibility over app functionality
You have an Extend license or are willing to invest in one.

Many organizations will use a combination of both solutions, subscribing to Built on Workday apps for standardized needs while developing custom apps through Workday Extend for more complex and tailored requirements.
